    ...but the seller thinks it's an automatic! Wrong bracelet too, but that bezel!!

    I bet he's had lots of requests for movement pictures and offers to end the auction now! Hope someone here can land it. Looks like a nice transitional with a clean dial too.
    Sorry if you thought this would stay a secret...;)

    Interesting how the seller goes into great detail about how he wore the watch for years and it being an automatic...... My guess he is lying about this being a one owner watch....

    I also thought those comments were a bit suspicious, as is the rust? around the bottom half of the bezel.

    Transitional?
    Not for me.
    This is quite toppy at the current bid of $1825.

    It looks like a 145.022-69 with potential water damage, a non original bracelet, home made end links and in dire need of a service.

    Its Ebay so you never know where it will end up!

    Damn tiny iPhone screen...
    Just zoomed it, hadn't noticed the rust. I retract my excitement for the bezel...

    How the heck does the bezel get that rusty
    in the desert? At first I didn't think it was
    rust, but if you zoom in the insert is breaking up there

    But the insert is made out of aluminium not steel?

    Sound really funny to heard that it is automatic watch for speedy transitional model :taunt: from seller.
    This is a real curious piece for transitional model in eBay .

    Could be dirt but if you look super close in photo 1 above the 120 the insert appears to be corroded quite badly... It looks like there is a hole?

    Wow.

    After seeing this, I'd bet you're right.

    But after reading the description a moment ago, my BS Alarm (and my laughter) woke up the neighbors. Surely it's a joke??
